GCSE Learning for Life and Work

The subject covers a range of topics which all have one thing in common – they are essential for pupils to know to live in the real world. The subject divides into three sections:

1. Local and Global Citizenship

In this topic pupils will learn about how society works and what part they have to play.

2. Personal Development

In this topic pupils will learn about some of the dangers on teenage and adult life, avoid them and how to make wise choices.

3. Education for Employability

This topic allows pupils to explore their career options and even how they could start their own business.

60% of your GCSE mark for this subject consists of coursework. They have two activities to complete as part of this coursework.

It is important that pupils stay on top of this coursework during the year; they can use the coursework planner inside this booklet to assist them in organising themselves.
